Tips

This dish is a really simple mid-week meal that can be served as individual portions or in one large bowl for sharing from the centre of the table.
For a different take on this recipe try adding a packet of torn smoked salmon slices to the sauce.
For a more mild flavour, use We Wash n’ Toss Baby Spinach and toss in a large can of tuna.
Try using spaghetti or linguine instead of fettuccine.
Alternatively you can use dried chilli flakes instead of fresh chillies.
